Hello Mika, some more observations:
I found a workaround: Changing 'allowed-hotplug eth0' to 'auto eth0' in /etc/network/interfaces fixes the problem for me. In the cases where this problem occurs, the /sys/class/net/eth0/operstate is 'down'. Therefore the hotplug function will not pick up the device. But why and how does (not) enforcing influence the setting of the device's operstate?
